The town is very quiet at night, because the vast majority of residents maintain the habit of working from sunrise to sunrise. At this time, only patrol teams are still patrolling the streets with neat steps, giving people a full sense of security.
.
Because there is a sense between transformers, outsiders don't care how they disguise themselves. The patrol can see the problem at a glance and has arrested several people. Because the territory has a curfew, no one is allowed to go on the streets after dark.
Moreover, there is only one hotel in the entire town, so outsiders have no choice but to live here, which further strengthens management.
Of course, some people tried to rent private houses, but unfortunately even if they offered gold coins, the transformed residents would not agree, so some people planned to use force, but the soldiers' strong crossbows and hard bows and Hogg's sledgehammer quickly taught them how to behave.
.
Those who dared to resist were beaten to death on the spot, those who surrendered were locked up, and those who committed serious crimes were hanged.
Under the method of thunder, the remaining people have learned to behave. In order to avoid being put in a cage or directly hanged, they can only act in accordance with the laws of the town, including the adventurers, because there are too many soldiers in the territory.
The patrol routes were crisscrossed, and there were no blind spots for them to avoid for a long time. They could only go out for a stroll during the day, and hurry back as soon as it got dark, for fear of being caught.
"I visited the town during the day. The people here are very wealthy. Every farmer has his own house and land, and can eat fresh bread and vegetables. This is rare in the empire." The speaker was a person.
The sturdy middle-aged man, named Roger, is the captain of the White Fang adventurer team. He is wearing a suit of iron-inlaid leather armor that is full of scratches. He has a mace and buckler at his feet. He can tell at a glance that he is experienced.
The old soldier said with a somewhat sighing tone at this time.
Roger came from a poor family. Because he had grown strong since he was a child, he was spotted by the knights in the village and worked as a knight's squire for several years. Later, the knight died in battle. As a knight's squire, he ended up with a dishonorable reputation. In desperation, he only
Being able to stay away from home and become an adventurer, he worked hard for more than ten years and formed a stable team. Now he came to the Northland for the future of the team, but he did not expect that there would be such a wealthy town in the remote and poor Northland.
.
"I went to the blacksmith shop. The blacksmith's craftsmanship is pretty good for humans. They use fine iron. And they actually use such good iron to make farm tools. There must be a high-quality iron mine here. In addition, the tavern
The wine is very good. It is brewed from the finest wheat and is not adulterated." The dwarf's voice under the bronze helmet sounded deep and powerful. He stroked his lush beard with one hand and held the ale in the other. He took a big gulp of the ale with a very serious expression.
It's enjoyment.
"Yes, we will always know." Roger said with a smile.
Healers are precious no matter where they are and have a very high status, so they won't go out to take risks at all. Unless someone hires them at a high price, they have to be protected, for fear of hurting the other party in the slightest and being blacklisted by all healers.
, once you get injured, you really have to rely on yourself to fight it off.
As for wizards, their status is not as high as the first two, but unless they are good at melee combat, it is not a good idea to venture out because the mortality rate is too high.
"There are stone roads in the forest?" Roger suspected that he had heard wrong. After all, except for cities, most towns did not have a few stone roads.
"Oak Mu and I went out of the city to the forest, where we found a sturdy wooden village with many lumberjacks and elite soldiers patrolling. If you want to enter the forest quietly, you can only choose to take a detour or sneak at night.
"The speaker was a petite assassin girl, wearing a standard black scarf covering her face and a short brown-grey cloak, only revealing a pair of slender but powerful calves.
As for the mage, he is an otaku who is addicted to research. Even when he goes out on adventures, he has his own team of followers. He does not ask for help at all, but is a high-quality customer of many adventurers.
His name is Bronze Helm, and he is a hundred-year-old dwarf. He became an adventurer for some reasons. He likes casting bronze vessels and drinking. He only cares about these two things, so he went out for a walk and then came back to drink. He has not stopped until now.
, but several teammates have long been accustomed to his personality.
Next are thieves and assassins. Despite their bad reputations, the number is not as large as expected. They are still elites because both require rigorous training for several years. After all, whether it is unlocking or sneaking, it is not just a matter of talent.
transformed into strength.
Therefore, the so-called iron triangle of war animal husbandry mostly only exists in the stories of bards. Although it exists in reality, it is rare.
Although he doesn't look like an elf, you can't doubt his eyes. After all, he is a man who once shot an eagle.
Oak did not open his mouth to explain, but pointed to his eyes.
It just so happens that adventurers are interested in secrets.
Even building a stone road in a city costs a lot of money, let alone in a forest. Just thinking about it makes my scalp numb, but the more this happens, the more it proves that there are huge secrets hidden inside.
The girl's name is Gray Cat. She has joined Roger's adventure team for the shortest time, but she is surprisingly reliable. The several times Roger's team encountered danger, they always found a chance to turn defeat into victory with her help.
"Okay, I believe you read it right. The question is who would spend a huge amount of money to build a stone road in the forest? There must be a reason, right?" Roger spread his hands and said helplessly, but his eyes lit up.
stand up.
Therefore, the vast majority of adventurers are either warriors or archers. Because they are cheap and plentiful, as long as they have a good physique and can carry a few kilograms of meat and train with the veterans in the village for a month, that's pretty much it.
"I found a stone road in the forest, but I don't know where it leads." The last person to speak was a tall, angular half-elf. He was oak. If his ears weren't for a piece, they would have been a little sharp. He said he had an elf.
No one would believe in his bloodline. He is the kind of man who can stand on people with his fists and run horses with his arms.
"No matter what the reason is, we will always know." Bronze Helmet, who had drunk all his ale, said with a hint of drunkenness, blinking his eyes.
Human warriors, dwarfs with heavy armor, petite assassins, and strong shooters, this is Roger's adventurer team. There are no priests, no mages, not even wizards, and this is the norm for adventurers.
Secrets are often equated with wealth and power, and this is what adventurers are looking for.
"I will go to the blacksmith shop to see if it is because the high-quality iron ore is located in the forest." Bronze Helmet said first, because this will not waste too much time for him, and he can come back to enjoy the high-quality iron ore here.
Ale.
"Oak and I will explore the outskirts of the forest to see if there is a path leading to the interior of the forest." The gray cat said in a calm tone, but Oak on the side did not object.
"Then I will wander around the town." Roger touched his chin and said. At the same time, he was a little regretful that there was no Adventurer's Guild here, and there was no familiar way to buy information, because it was completely isolated from the outside world, and it was difficult to play his role.
